PRACTICAL INVESTIGATION OF NOISE REDUCTION OF A DIESEL PASSENGER CAR

The present stage of technique still does not allow the manufacturing of Diesel engines as silent as gasoline engines. However, a rational use of classical insulating processes will enable Diesel engine passenger cars to have, from now on, an acoustic quality close to that of gasoline, engine vehicles. The purpose of this paper is to describe a practical example of the insulation of a passenger car with a Diesel engine.
